The fortune-telling address of Shenyang Institute for the Blind.

The blind people's home in Tiexi District of Shenyang is aging. Why is it like an island in the city?

This courtyard in Tiexi District of Shenyang has no name. The eight buildings in the yard are relocated houses. The blind workers in Shenyang Transformer Factory got the name "Blind House" after being arranged to live here on 1989. When there were the most people, there were more than one hundred blind people living in the yard. In the past 28 years, high-rise buildings around the compound for the blind have gradually sprung up, and the street to the south of the compound has become a famous auto parts city in Shenyang. ? The brick-red walls in the yard began to fall off, and the blind people grew old with the yard-from the initial 100 to 67 people, with an average age of 76, and two or three people "left" every year. Invariably, almost every blind person in the yard said: I don't want to go anywhere, this is the best place.

The story of the 1950s.

77-year-old Li Fengzhen has fair skin and a straight nose. She once had a pair of beautiful eyes with clear pupils, and she could see beautiful double eyelids without blinking. Now there is only 10% discount left. 1992, Li Fengzhen married into the compound for the blind. The husband is also blind. Her home is simple and simple, and all the furniture is placed along the wall, so it is not easy to bump. When her husband is alive, teaching her life by hand is like teaching a child-adding two small bowls of rice to an electric rice cooker probably requires water as deep as the palm of your hand; Cut potatoes and cut them in half. If you are afraid of cutting, you will "cut on your stomach"; Don't fill the boiling water too full. Stop when the noise reaches 80%. Four years ago, Li Fengzhen's husband died of illness, and he was still thinking about it before he died, asking her to "remember to lock the door before going to bed and rummage through the refrigerator twice." Like Li Fengzhen, all the blind people in the yard are blind the day after tomorrow. When they were young, they got glaucoma and cataracts and gradually became blind. These blind people have been working together since they were sixteen or seventeen, making chopsticks, tying brooms and winding coils. At 7: 30 every morning, they are taken to work by bus. ?

They retired one after another 20 years ago.

The monthly retirement salary of retired workers in the blind courtyard is 2000-3000 yuan, most of which is around 2700 yuan. They have their own house and live a simple life without spending much money. Most of their pensions are spent on their grandchildren. An old man chatted and said, "I calculated last year and spent 30 thousand yuan on my little grandson."

The blind are getting old. There used to be more than 80 households 100 blind people in the compound? One by one "left", and now there are only 43 households with 67 people. In the past, there were always not enough seats in the activity room when the community organized activities, but now there are sometimes not enough seats. In the yard of the blind, life passes slowly. For nearly 30 years, blind people only played the same poker game. They walk back and forth between home and activity room with a blind stick every day.

More than 20 years ago, there were blind people who had been to Beijing in the courtyard. It was raining lightly in Shenyang at that time. They are wearing thick clothes. Some people say that they are "dressed like bean bags". When they lined up to go to the toilet, the line of blind people was crooked. They heard someone whisper-"My ass is crooked." Nowadays, there are more and more cars on the road. Even if you go to the park across the street, someone should lead you. They are afraid of cars. In the yard, as soon as the blind stick touched the car, the alarm went off and they were in a panic. The hospital for the blind is more and more like an island in the city-turn right at the entrance of the hospital and there is a barbecue shop. Qiu Wenxiang is greedy. He must wait until the children are free to take her away. "There are so many recreational activities outside that blind people can't go." In the activity room, someone whispered, I am blind and should be with the blind people's hospital.
